Hi Bill

I am having difficulty IDing this truck.
I looks similar to the Opel 2.5-ton but this one has a different door, front bumper and radiator logo.

Any ideas?

Cheers Larry

Radiator logo.

Hi Larry:

Looks to be a Hansa-Lloyd Borgward, possibly a 42-PS of the early-mid 1930 period. Again, I cannot post photos just now but will when it gets straightened out.
Edit: More likely a 2 1/2 tonner "2.5T" of about 1938 and maybe just a Borgward, not the earlier Hansa-Lloyd type.

Hi Bill,

Thanks very much for the information.

I think the truck is a Hansa-Lloyd Bremen IV series.

Here's a pic to compare.

Hi Ian:

Your vehicle is a British MG, most likely an SA of the middle late 1930 period.

I wonder if your photo is from the Jersey Islands, as I have seen various MG, Jaguar and similar vehicles from there confiscated and allocated to the WM and WL.
Sorry, the things over the headlamps are a form of blackout lights allowing use of the headlamps at night with no reflection upwards and just a teeny little light ahead of the vehicle.

would the J on the license plate mean Jersey Islands ?

[Bill Murray]

Makes sense to me but I have long ago removed the Jersey history site from my bookmarks as it never got updated for years. I will try to Google it later today.

thanks for your help Billl
Ian.
ps. if these are jersey troops, my collection of about 20 negatives will have to be looked at much more closely.

i had a quick google and found these, they are modern but possible the same or similiar system was used during the 40's.

[Bill Murray]

This doesn't prove the theory completely, but here is a photo of a Jag that I know came from Jersey. The Jersey plate has been replaced by a WM plate but the odd headlamp covers look to be the same to me.

Here's a large six-wheeler for you guys to ID. Vertical slats on the hood and disk wheels look similar to those on a photo I have of a smaller French Bernard truck.
